Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Pueblo CO
1116 AM MDT SAT SEP 17 2016

.SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight)
Issued at 400 AM MDT Sat Sep 17 2016

...Threat of Severe Storms for the Southeast Plains Today...

Main concern today will be the threat of svr wx over the SE Plains
this afternoon. Will see CAPE of 1500-2000 j/kg and Bulk shear
around 40 Kts late this afternoon and early eve. A short wave
disturbance now seen on WV imagery moving into E UT-W CO will
push through SE CO this afternoon. This will set off SCT storms
over the Plains that will congeal into an MCS by early evening
over extreme E CO and W KS. The latest HRRR runs and the 4km
NAM are in good agreement with the evolution of convection this
afternoon. Storms will initially form from 18-19Z over the S Sangres
and Spanish Peaks Region, then coverage will expand to the NE
along a diffuse dry line. A broken line of storms should then
intensify and spread to the E-SE, moving into OK and SW KS by
early eve. Svr Parameters will support all types of severe
Wx...but the greatest threats will be for hail up to around golf
ball size, and wind gusts in excess of 60 mph. This threat will be
greatest over E Las Animas County and all of Baca County late this
afternoon.

Temps today will be considerably higher than yesterday...with highs
reaching the lower to mid 80s over the Plains and 60s-70s for the
Mts and high valleys. Expect clearing skies from W to E tonight,
which will lead to cool but seasonable overnight Lows, mainly in
the 40s-lower 50s for the Plains and 30s for the high valleys. Rose

.LONG TERM...(Sunday through Friday)
Issued at 400 AM MDT Sat Sep 17 2016

.Sunday and Monday...Upper level ridge develops over Colorado with
dry air aloft continuing to advect into the region from the west.
Anticipate warm and dry weather both days. With 700mb temperatures
around 10C to 12C, high temperatures will approach 90 degrees on
the plains both days, but temperatures will be at least several
degrees shy of the daily record highs.

.Tuesday...Upper trough moves into the Pacific Northwest on
Tuesday. Southwest flow ahead of the trough will bring moisture
northward into Colorado. Moisture appears to originate from a
potential tropical system which will develop off the coast of
Mexico. National Hurricane Center currently has this system as a
disturbance, and they have a high probability of tropical cyclone
formation. With a lee trough over the plains keeping deeper low
level moisture to the east, chances for convection late Tuesday
appear to be confined to the mountains.

.Wednesday through Friday...GFS and EC start showing differences
with the track of the disturbance over the Pacific Northwest. EC
is faster moving the system to the east while the GFS is slower
and digs the trough into the Great Basin. Both models suggest that
diurnal convection will stay mostly over and near the mountains,
with generally downslope flow on the plains. The GFS brings a cold
front close to the northern portions of the CWA on Thursday. If
the front moves further south, upslope flow behind the front will
bring increased low level moisture with a better chance for
convection developing on the plains. --PGW--

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Sunday afternoon)
Issued at 1105 AM MDT Sat Sep 17 2016

Upper disturbance will move east across the eastern Colorado
plains this afternoon...with convective initiation expected over
the far eastern plains including Kiowa, Bent, Prowers, Baca and
eastern Las Animas as early as 19Z. Shortwave strength, moisture
and instability is great enough for a few organized severe storms
in these areas through the afternoon, with most activity east of
the flight area, into Kansas by 00Z. Primary storm threats will
include lightning, golf ball size hail, winds to 60 mph and heavy
rain. For areas farther west, a few thunderstorms possible this
afternoon with primary threats of lightning and winds to around 40
mph. Thunderstorms should be east of KCOS, KPUB and KALS TAF sites
today so not included in terminal forecasts. VFR across flight
area today excluding areas of precipitation where MVFR, IFR and
LIFR conditions will be encountered. After about 06Z tonight, dry
air spreads into the region for VFR all areas through Sunday.
